Q. Which of the following compounds have a stable trans isomer than its cis form?

Q. First, you name both the compounds. Yes, both of them have the same name. Yet, are they really the same structure, or they are somehow different? Careful inspection should convince you that they are indeed different. Now, how their physical and chemical properties differ? Generally,
i) Cis-isomer has more dipole moment than trans-isomer.
ii) Cis is less stable than trans.
iii) The boiling points of cis isomers are more than those of trans isomers (remember boiling points are directly related to polarity which is determined by dipole moment).
iv) Chemical reactivities of cis and trans also differ from each other.
Which of the following statements best explain(s) the relationship between two isomers of

C H_{3} - C H = C H - C H_{3}

Arrange the following compounds in the increasing order of their boiling points.

C H_{3} - C H = C H - C H_{3} (c i s)

C H_{3} - C H = C H - C H_{3} (t r a n s)

C H_{3} - C H = C H C l (c i s)

C H_{3} - C H = C H C l (t r a n s)

Q. Why boiling point of cis isomer is greater than trans isomer?
